#PostOfficeClosure The Economic Freedom Fighters in Limpopo has raised a concern over the closure of a Post Office at Ga-Nchabeleng village, in Apel. RM

#PostOfficeClosure It is alleged the facility was closed by the ANC's Ward 39 councillor, Matilda Tlape who is said to have locked the facility and took away the keys with her since April 2021 to date. RM

#PostOfficeClosure EFF Limpopo Coordinator Rebecca Mohlala says despite numerous attempts by the Ga-Nchabeleng Traditional Authority to recover the keys, Tlape is hell-bent on bringing the postal services to a halt permanently, thus interrupting service delivery. RM

#PostOfficeClosure Mohlala says postal services have been severely interrupted, and this includes the elderly not being able to access the SASSA pay point services. RM

#PostOfficeClosure She says as a result, old-age grant beneficiaries must walk more than 7 kilometres to the nearby shopping complex to withdraw their grant payments monthly. RM

#PostOfficeClosure ANC Regional Secretary Tala Mathope says they have instructed the councillor to bring the post office keys to the ANC regional office and they will hand them over to the Traditional Authority. RM
